Infrared FLIR Camera of T600 Series

FLIR thermal imaging cameras are ideal for the use in multicopter systems. Despite the weight, it is possible to configure the drones so that the take-off weight is less than 5 kg, which will provide for the sufficiency of the general permission for UAV. It is possible to integrate FLIR infrared camera into the communication for the flight control. Thus, a radiometric JPEG with abnormalities in the temperature pattern can be specifically targeted from the ground. Simply focus, trigger and save. An advantage of the IR camera is the switch to manual use. FLIR thermal imaging cameras with a resolution of 640 x 480 pixels are ideal for thermal detection in the field of electrical and mechanical repair and building diagnostic survey. More information is provided in the User Report of FLIR company. We will be happy to advise and provide you with a nonbinding proposal.

Technical details of the thermal imaging camera of FLIR T 600 series

• Optical resolution 640 x 480 Pixel
• Thermal sensitivity depending on model 0.035 mK
• MSX - Multi Spectral Dynamic Imaging for more details
• Combined storage of MSX®, thermal imaging and PIP (picture in picture)
• Built-in GPS and compass
• Digital camera of 5 megapixels for a reference image
• Manual focus on the lens, including a quick one shot autofocus
• Continuous autofocus only in model T 640
• Surface coordinate measurement using laser pointer
• Interfaces: Digital Video Interface, USB and a charging port to charge the battery
• MPEG-4 video recording with/without radiometric data
• Thermal fusion - combines digital image with IR image
• Picture in Picture (PIP)
• Sketched, written and spoken comments
• Digital zoom function
• Meters Link ™ and WIFI

Since 2012, we have been using FLIR T620 in a multicopter. Upon request, FLIR adapted the infrared camera. A special cable, developed by us, allows for the focusing and initiation of the infrared images with control for the flying robots. Since we are talking here about a technical application, the roll axis on the camera mount (gimbal) was omitted. Since only the pitch axis is used, the weight is spared accordingly. On the basis of the microcopter concept it is possible to maintain the weight under 5 kg, which is, according to the regulations in Germany, requires only a general permission for UAV. Our conclusion: the camera has proven itself in every day work.

LightWeight Infrared Camera Optris PI 640

The infrared camera Optris PI 640 is the smallest VGA-resolution thermal imaging camera in the world. With an optical resolution of 640×480 pixels, the PI640 delivers pin-sharp infrared images and shows them on our Mini PC at 24 Hz (deployment on the multicopter). With the housing dimensions of 46 x 56 x 90 mm, this infrared camera weighing only 320 g, incl. lens, is not only small, but also very light, which makes it one of the most compact on the market. Due to its low weight and high resolution, thermal imaging camera is the best choice for the integration into a drone or UAV (unmanned aerial vehicle). Optris PI 640 makes accurate measurements in the temperature range from -20°C to 900°C. The corresponding special Mini PC weighs only 300 g. The PC is currently exclusive and could be bought from us against cash payment. Due to its special architecture, the use of the lightweight Mini PC is possible at ambient temperatures from -20°C to 70°C. The RAM and CPU are installed vibration-resistant and operate in extreme environments. The data are recorded on SSD (64GB or 128GB optional). A 2-axis camera mount for Optris PI 640 with a GoPro camera and Mini PC is also available as a kit. A kit with a Mini PC proposal when purchasing Optris PI 640

New "optris PI 640 with radio-controlled recording"

We offer a professional solution for starting and stopping recording in addition to our high-performance miniPC, which has been specially configured for the optris PI 640 infrared camera. Starting now, recording with the heat image camera may be started and stopped via radio (to control the UAV or the gimbal). This solution is provided especially for use with multicopters. Another option is to purchase a digital camera/real image camera featuring a 60° lens. This camera weighs only 50 grammes and may also be started using a remote device after adjustment of the infrared camera. The best part is that if the IR camera is started, the real image camera starts automatically, and the same happens when recording is stopped. After starting the miniPC, the heat imaging camera and the digital camera are started automatically. This makes manual activation of the camera unnecessary. Optionally, it is also possible to switch the video back and forth between the infrared image and the real image (using the radio device). The total weight of the optris PI 640, the digital camera, and the remote control module amounts to 300 grammes. Previously purchased cameras may be adjusted upon request.
